< Psalms 28 >

1 [By David.] To you, YHWH, I call. My rock, do not be deaf to me; lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.
MAING, ai paipalap, i lao likwir wong komui, kom der kotin sapaimokid, pwe ma re pan sapaimokid, i pan dueta ir, me pan lokidokila nan por o.
2 Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, when I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
Kom kotin mangi ngil en ai ngidingid, i lao likwir wong komui, i lao kapa wong pa i kat mol omui saraui.
3 Do not draw me away with the wicked, with evildoers who speak peace with their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.
Re der kotin kasapoke ia la iangaki me sapung kan, iangaki me wia sued, me kin lokaia kaselel ong men impa, ap lamelame sued nan mongiong arail.
4 Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.
Kotin depuk ong ir duen ar dodok o duen ar tiak sued; kotiki ong ir duen dodok en pa arail; katingi ong ir duen ar wiawia.
5 Because they do not regard the works of YHWH, nor the operation of his hands, he will break them down and not build them up.
Pwe re sota insenoki dodok en Ieowa de wiawia en lim a kan; i me a pan kotin kawe ir ala, a sota kauada.
6 Blessed be YHWH, because he has heard the voice of my petitions.
Kaping ong Ieowa, pwe a kotin erekier ngil en ai ngidingid.
7 YHWH is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.
Ieowa kel pa i o pere pa i, mongiong i kin liki i, o sauas pa i mia. Mongiong i liki i o i pan danke i ki ai kaul.
8 YHWH is the strength of his people. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
Ieowa kele parail; i me manaman ong sauasa sapwilim a me keidier.
9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
Kotin sauasa sapwilim omui aramas akan o kotin kamauiala sapwilim omui soso, o kotin kamanga ir o apwali irail ada kokolata!
